I ordered another Laco..

[leslie]

Oh, some brands sipeh guai-lan one, got odd dimensions. 19-16mm, 21-16mm, 23-22mm...for my Graham it is 24-20mm...the current strap I have for it...well, could be better looking and I don't really like the rubber strap it came with. For my Brequet, the tan faux alligator pattern looks to...erm...tame, I'm sure it'll look more like a pilot watch with stealthy looking black kevlar, hehe.

like that next time i buy watches need to check the straps first.. skali buy one weird sizing one wanna change straps very troublesome.. hehe..

[toffeesthings]

Hehehehe..becoz my knowledge is truly meagre...so i hope dun mislead or provide wrong info mah...later next time we meet up u hantam me or wad....i m kind of small built for a guy...fragile leh...hehehehe

I agreed that the strap often make or break a watch ..as in look funny or look garang...lol....spent a bomb in the past thru customising straps from various strap makers to find a good length,thickness,number of keepers..fixed or movable keepers...colours..stitching colours...materials...argh...too many to remb for now

Not at all Bro, I'm also learning. I've only been into watches for 3-4 years, initially had to figure out alot of things on my own but great to know alot of experts here that share their knowledge that helped out alot. But yeah, I better reach out to Mr Goh one of these days when I'm in a travelling mood. Can also drop by the Army market at Lavender to pick out some military watch photoshoot props, hehe!

Congrats TS and fellow G.L.F Club members!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We Hit the 100 pages mark!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

strap can be notched at the connecting ends..my mm300 lug size is 20mm...but mounted on a 24mm strap...becoz if the strap is 20mm thru out...it makes my mm300 look like a wimp...

So i opt for 20mm at lug and 24mm thru out...look better and more garang...and with the huge dive buckle to complement the macho stylo milo look....

but how come got 24 mm taper down to 20mm one meh?

Can try to find Bro Pamdino for Ted Su strap info and prices...i bought it thru him and he is really a great dude to deal with...always entertain my requests and questions patiently....

Locally if you only need the straps and normal tang buckles, i seen Mr Goh shop does keep stocks for 22mm and 24mm kelvar type straps with different colour stitchings to boot...hehehehe

Cna try K2 if you have the time Bro Toffesthings....

Sorry for the ramblings....hehehehehe..

Ah, don't say ramblings lah, I really appreciate your sharing. Hmmm...guess gotta consult Bro Pamdino. Size 24mm no problems finding but its the bloody 20mm buckle size that's the real challenge. Straps for a watch are like rims to a car, must find the right fit to accentuate its looks.

[feilong108]

Oyyyyy!!!! Chope chope chope!!!! That's the exact dimensions I need for my garang Graham! 24mm down to 20mm because of the strange sizing! From Ted Su ah? Hehe, mind telling me how much Bro and if can buy locally? Another weird size is for my Breguet...21mm down to 16mm...damn hard to find siah!
